Notes
  • This structure is also documented as Welfare Island, Castle-Hospital, HABS No. NY-6077 (KEY 2/9/2004).
  • Significance: Opened in 1860, Island Hospital was among New York City's largest institutions for the treatment of illnesses among the poor. It occupied a prominent position near the south end of Blackwell's Island, which during the 19th century was extensively developed by New York City through construction of numerous facilities for the criminal, the insane, and the destitute. Designed by James Renwick, Jr., Island Hospital presented the first use of the Second Empire style for public buildings in the United States and in addition was the architect's first major work in the style.
  • Survey number: HABS NY-6285
